Ashok Kumar,
No one can "see" or experience Brahman without chittasuddhi. So in that sense Brahman is indeed higher reality. It is not just Shankaracharya's Advaita but all Vedantic systems involve some form of japa and dhyana to take us beyond the rather limited reality seen by us. So I do not disagree with you when you say that Brahman is higher reality. It may just be semantics.
